Playa del Amour, Mexico

Lovers Beach sounds like a secluded romantic getaway where you can frolick and get your best Against All Odds moment on, right? Wrong. Lovers Beach is near Los Arcos and Lands’ End in Los Cabos. It’s a popular tourist stop, snorkeling beach, and you will be hard pressed to find any stretch of sand where you can get your lover on in private.

Still, Playa del Amour has got the a good name for marketing, and people come in droves. The best part? Walk too far back on the beach and you’ll find yourself staring at the Pacific Ocean, on Divorce Beach.
